Child care services Looking for quality, safe child care while you work out or take a class? Utilize this service while you enjoy amenities at Genesis Place. Child care is a fun and friendly environment that is open and spacious. Children will take part in age appropriate activities through organized centres, games, exploration and playing with a variety of equipment. Parents can book up to two hours per day.

Continuous bookings – Genesis Place has reserved a limited number of spaces during scheduled hours for adult patrons registered in a dry land or aquatic program. Patrons must provide their registration receipt for the program, and pay in full for the child care spots at the time of booking in order to reserve their space and access this service.

Our commitment to safety – All staff are first aid and CPR certified. Strict child to staff ratios are maintained through the booking process to ensure the safety of all children. Child care is set up to allow infants and younger children a safe place to crawl and toddle without the larger children around them. Staffing ratios are one staff member to six children (maximum up to two infants).

Fees (passes expire within one year of purchase)

Booking – Peak times in child care are weekdays from 9 to 11 a.m. It is recommended to pre-book with as much notice as possible. To guarantee a spot during non-peak times, a minimum of 24 hour notice is required. Child care accepts bookings up to one month in advance. Drop-in is permitted when ratios have not been met.

A 10 level program for children ages five to 12 years Level 1

The 10 levels allow for solid progression. Children learn competitive and survival strokes and build their distance and speed while focusing on making safe decisions in, on and around the water. In each level, participants are evaluated based on performance criteria and progress to the next level once all of the criteria have been successfully completed.

Swimmers receive an orientation to water and the pool area and work on floats, glides and kicking. Swimmers build their endurance by working on the five metre front swim.

Level 2

Swimmers work on propulsion skills to move through the water and to remain at the surface. Swimmers work on the front swim (5m) and learn about deep-water activities and proper use of a personal flotation device (PFD). Fitness activities include the 10m flutter kick and a 10m distance swim.

Level 3

This level provides an introduction to diving and teaches swimmers how to make wise choices about where and when to swim. Endurance is achieved by building strength in the flutter kick and a 15m swim.

Level 4

This level introduces the front crawl (10m) and back swim with shoulder roll (15m). Swimmers work on kneeling dives, surface support (45 seconds, deep water) and developing a greater sense of self-safety by understanding their own limits. Endurance is built through a 25m swim.

Level 5

This level introduces the back crawl (15m), sculling skills, whip kick on the back, stride dives and treading water. Front crawl increases to 15m. An introduction to safe boating skills is also included. Endurance is developed through a 50m swim.

Level 6

This level refines front crawl with a focus on hand entry and breathing (25m), back crawl with a focus on arm positions and body roll (25m), introduces elementary backstroke (15m), safety on ice, and rescue of others with throwing assists. Swimmers demonstrate the front dive and their ability to tread water in deep water for one and a half minutes. Endurance is built through dolphin kick and a 75m swim.

Level 7

Level 8

This level is an introduction to breaststroke (15m) and feet-first surface dives. Swimmers learn about the dangers of open water, hypothermia, the performance of rescue breathing on children and adults and standing shallow dives. Swimmers participate in timed treading water activities using the eggbeater kick for three minutes to improve their ability to remain at the surface in the event of an unexpected fall into water. Endurance is built on a 300m swim. Front crawl and back crawl distances are increased to 75m each.

Level 9

This level reviews the front crawl (100m), back crawl (100m), elementary backstroke (50m), breaststroke (25m), and encourages swimmers to combine different kicks for fitness (three minutes). They also work on head-first surface dives and learn about wise choices, peer influences and self-rescue from ice. Endurance is built through a 400m swim.

Level 10

This level is a final assessment of the strokes for technique and distance (front crawl 100m, back crawl 100m, elementary backstroke 50m, breaststroke 50m and sidestroke 25m). Swimmers learn about sun safety, rescue of others from ice, and head-first and feet-first surface dives. Endurance is built using the dolphin kick (vertical) and a 500m swim.

Kids Connection Preschool 2018/19 Ages 3 to 5 Children are encouraged to participate in a variety of activities including crafts, special events, sharing, imaginative centre play, circle time, sensory table activities, field trips, letter and number identification, creative movement in the dance studio and games, sports and skill development in the gymnasium. Our programming allows children the opportunity to develop and use new talents, skills and interests that will assist them when they enter the school system. Early literacy and language skills are explored by combining calendar activities, name recognition activities, letter of the week program, special helpers and reading and listening centres. Themes related to the world around us offer many opportunities to learn about a variety of topics and allow children to relate these ideas to their everyday life.

Social and emotional learning Social and emotional learning is explored daily in our classroom. Children have the opportunities to choose learning centres to play in with other classmates. Sensory tables open up the chance to explore varied textures and materials while sharing the experience with their peers. This time is a fantastic time to discover how to share and empathize with others in the classroom.

n atio istr ing g e R ngo is o

Creative experiences Creative experiences occur regularly in our program. Unstructured art and craft times allow everyone the opportunity to try out new materials and let their imaginations soar. Our centres are designed to allow the children a chance to play creatively using their imaginations to create their own experiences.

Physical growth and skill development Physical growth and skill development are a huge part of our program. Physical literacy is the ability for children to learn the skills necessary for success in being active for life. It is as important to healthy growth and development as the ABCs are important to literacy and learning for life. According to the Canadian Physical Activity Guidelines, being active can help young children maintain a healthy weight, improve movement skills, have fun, be happy, develop self-confidence and improve learning and attention. We focus on building those necessary skills such as hopping, jumping, skipping, catching, throwing and balancing. *There is a $25 non refundable fee due at registration. Registration starts Jan. 29, 2018 at 9 a.m. and is ongoing throughout the year.

Preschool, children & youth Genesis Place recreation programming Our approach to quality programming is based on the following:

Physical literacy We all know that you have to be able to walk before you can run, but did you know that you have to be able to hop before you can skip or balance before you can kick? Our programs focus on early physical literacy skills through games and activities to promote fun and enjoyment of an active lifestyle later on in life. It’s not about being the best; it’s about being able to participate!

The importance of play Some of the best childhood memories come from the freedom to play! Please join in our PLAY based programs where kids get to have fun and be kids. Whether it’s a parented program where you and your child can enjoy making new friends and playing together, or in an independent class where your child gets to explore different equipment and fun games on their own, it’s all about remembering how to PLAY!

A multi-family property includes residential condominiums, apartments and any residential building with multiple units that does not currently receive City curbside waste collection services Building owners and property managers are responsible for implementing and ensuring the program meets all requirements however they have the flexibility to choose their own private recycler and to customize the program to meet their building’s specific needs. Every building owner or manager of a multi-family property must: 1. Implement a recycling program that accepts the minimum of: • Mixed paper • Cardboard • Plastics # 1–7 (except Styrofoam) • Stretchy plastic (shopping bags, etc.) • Refundable beverage containers (excluding glass) • Tetra Paks® (juice and soup boxes) • Metal (tin food cans, aluminium pie plates, etc.)

Blue cart tip

Wondering if you can recycle plastic film? Do the stretch test! If it stretches it can be recycled (like plastic wrap and plastic bags). If it’s crinkly like a chip bag and doesn’t stretch, it’s not recyclable.

Changes to cup disposal

Other recyclables Not all recyclable items can go in your blue cart. Take the following items to the Eastside Recycle Depot. Electronics Styrofoam (no food styrofoam) Coffee cup/drink lids

We’re making changes to where we place disposable cups. Waxed lined coffee/drink cups should no longer go in the green cart with your organics as our processor is finding the wax does not break down during the recycling process and compromises the final product. Waxed cups should be placed in the garbage. Unwaxed cups can be recycled in your blue cart.

Paint Lightbulbs Aerosols Cooking oil Motor oil & filters (residential quantities) Textiles/clothing Propane tanks

Not sure if it’s waxed or unwaxed? Do the scratch test! Scratch your fingernail along the inside of the cup – if it is waxed, you will see a layer of wax under your fingernail.

Collection and placement

Batteries

Place your blue cart at the curb by 7 a.m. on your collection day. Leave a minimum of 1 metre clearance around the entire cart to ensure trucks are able to access it.

Household hazardous waste Excess blue cart materials

(that would cause your blue cart to overflow)

Carts cannot be placed at the curb between two vehicles as the truck arms cannot reach. Place your cart out past any parked vehicles. The recycling collection trucks are automated and equipped to pick up only carts and not excess recycling around it. If you have excess recycling, please take it to the Eastside Recycle Depot or store it until the next collection day.

WINTER

green cart tips Winter cart placement Winter conditions can present challenges for green cart placement and collection. Here are a few tips to help make this first winter with your green cart a success: • Carts placed behind or on top of snow banks will not be collected. Place your carts at the curb/alley in an area free of snow accumulation such as the flat area at the end of your driveway. Ensure your cart is 1m from any obstructions especially vehicles and fences.

STUCK

Don’t get with organics freezing to your cart

During winter, the contents of your green cart may freeze to the sides or bottom of the cart. Drivers performing the collection make every effort to dump the entire contents of your green cart, however, if your organics get stuck inside your cart, please be patient and wait until the next organics collection day.

Use these tips to avoid organics freezing to your cart: • Wrap food with high moisture content in soiled boxes or newspaper • Lining your cart will act as a barrier. Use an acceptable green cart liner such as newspaper, paper bags, soiled pizza boxes, or compostable bags with one of these logos:

• Store your cart in a sheltered area to ensure the lid opens when the cart is tipped into the truck. Placing your cart in a sunny location can also help. • Ensure snow is cleared onto your lawn or boulevard, and that cart placement will not interfere with snow plows or other vehicles. • Always have your cart out by 7 a.m. as weather conditions, truck maintenance, and other unforeseen events can lead to route changes. • When there is snow on the ground, pulling your cart will likely be easier than pushing it. • Get to know your neighbours. If they need assistance getting their cart to the curb or creating a snow-free collection spot, offer your assistance.

• Layer wet organics (food waste, leaves) with dry organics (newspaper, pizza boxes.) Layering is even more important during the time of year when temperatures fluctuate frequently. Try adding crumpled newspaper to the bottom of your cart. • Don’t force the contents of the cart down. • Strain excess liquid from soups and sauces with a strainer and only place the solid pieces in the cart. • You can store well-wrapped organic waste in your freezer and then place it in your cart on collection day. Visit airdrie.ca/organics or contact Waste & Recycling Services at: 403.948.0246 organics@airdrie.ca

Public Spaces It’s been a busy year for Airdrie with the start of the multi-family recycling program, the implementation of curbside recycling for single family homes and the new Waste Management bylaw but we’re not done yet! The City has enhanced services to include recycling options in public spaces to increase diversion and encourage responsible waste management. You may have seen recycling and organics stations at the Town & Country Community Halls and the Nose Creek Concession. These locations were chosen as pilot locations in the fall of 2016. In September 2017, the program was expanded to include select Airdrie parks and public facilities.

MIXED RECYCLING

Paper • Cardboard Disposable paper cups Plastic #1–7 Tin food cans

Reminders

We’ve made it easy by ensuring these stations accept the same materials as the blue and green carts. So keep an eye out for the new stations and help us keep Airdrie clean by placing your waste in the correct bins.

Curbside collection runs until 7 p.m. Sign up for e-mail or text reminders at .ca. • Not sure where to put something? Check out the Where Does it Go tool on airdrie.ca. • Windy days make for wandering carts – be sure to write your address in the white block on your blue and green cart so it’s easy to identify if the wind moves it. • Cart not collected? Be sure there is one metre clearance around the entire cart, pull the cart out and away from fences and garages so the truck arms can reach around safely.
